They're...eh. Any 5*?

No, should I just keep restarting till I get a 5*?

Reroll until you get 5 star Reinhardt. Seriously, he is the best unit in the game.

If you're gonna care enough about pulls to restart you may as well go for a 5*, yeah. Of the banners that are up right now Reinhardt is a blue cavalry mage on the vantage banner and is a very good unit. The tempest banner focuses are generally good. I haven't looked into the Echoes of Mystery banner in terms of actually using the characters for something other than passing skills so I couldn't really say for that one.

Ultimately just pick a banner with characters you like and give it a go.

Once you pull a 5* you can check to see what their boon and bane are on a checker like this one. Whats good or not can vary by character but generally +atk or +spd are good ones.

I'm not sure I'd go so greedy as "restart until you get exactly Rein" but I would definitely restart until you get a 5 star, it really gives you a direction and makes the middle levels much easier

You get like almost 30 orbs before even doing the first mission right now. It's never been a better time to start new and get that Reinhardt with minimum effort.

I would, given he's a banner unit.

No way I'd do it if he wasn't.

That was almost my exact team too, just swap Robin for Elise. Well that and I had a bunch of skill inheritance and two 5*s (Stahl and Elise).

EDIT:

Next set of bonus units:
Katarina
Rody
Athena
Luke
Camus
Hinoka
Jakob
Stahl
Lissa
Anna

Ooh, nice set. I can use either Hinoka or Stahl here.

My account was definitely linked and the wipe seems tied to it, since opening it on my iPad gave me the exact same error.

Edit: Reinstalling and trying to link my ID treats it like a completely new start, complete with inputting my character name, so I'm pretty sure I'm screwed.

vvv First thing I did as soon as this is went down. Guess I've got nothing to do but wait for them to get back to me.

Bonus Units are out

Guess I'll use Anna, with Reinhardt and Olivia, but I'm torn between Nino and Tharja. Nino is more useful overall but Tharja is better for dealing with Hector (TA3 Olivia can handle him too, but requires to take out all other units and force him into a position where he can only attack her). I'll probably go Nino. I also have a Katarina, but she's a bad nature and I haven't leveled her at all because Tempest is taking up all my stamina

Hector shouldn't be an issue since armored units only have one move and TA3 Olivia ORKOs him. Go with nino.

Hmm I'd probably be worried about your actual Nintendo account. I know there's a delete feature in the web page but I'm not sure what exactly it does.

So I tried the MKV strategy for the infernal GHB but my Cecilia is -def so I gave Stahl Hone Def 2 to make her defense equal to what it is in the video. She still got one round killed. Do specials ignore bonuses or do hone skills not stack with goad skills?

Elyv

So I originally wasn't going to roll on any of these banners because while Rein is great and all I already have a bunch of powerful mage based comps and a 4 star rein to eventually 5 star so do I really need him anyway? Then I decided what the hell, best character in the game, may as well try to save me the 20k feathers, god knows I have enough things to do with feathers already. Pull on the banner, get a +atk/-def Rein on my first pull, showing my incredible skill at the game

I haven't watched the video but maybe it's because Legion's axe has a Panic effect? One of the Legions has a Panic Ploy skill, too.

lol I was shaking my fist at you, then did literally the exact same thing. Time to melt old Reinhardt I suppose. Who likes having Vantage? Or should I just merge?

Legion doesn't even get a chance to hit anybody, she's getting killed by the archer in the top part of the map and it's the only damage she needs to take.

Does she have Gronnraven equipped, is she 4*, and is she getting the spur def 1 bonus from one of the other units?

Had Gronnblade equipped. I sometimes forget triangle advantage is also a defense bonus. Thanks!

He also gives his Sakuras amusing names each time

This time they're "The usual Sakura", "Thunder God Sakura", "Wind God Sakura", and one I can't figure out that I suspect is a meme or reference (it's hakanage Sakura if someone knows what that means).

It seems it would, as reinforcements are keyed to Legions dying! If they kamikaze into my mans too hard, (IE, Xander) or I've upgraded some of the units in the guide (My Cecilia is 4+7, my Felicia is 4+6), it means I kill them slightly too efficiently to avoid an excess of adds.
